InterPro is a database of protein families, protein domains and functional sites in which identifiable features found in known proteins can be applied to new protein sequences [2] in order to functionally characterise them.
The general purpose of the Pfam database is to provide a complete and accurate classification of protein families and domains. [5] Originally, the rationale behind creating the database was to have a semi-automated method of curating information on known protein families to improve the efficiency of annotating genomes. [6]
Tachykinin peptides are one of the largest families of neuropeptides, found from amphibians to mammals.They were so named due to their ability to rapidly induce contraction of gut tissue. [2]
Fel d 1 is a secretoglobin protein complex that, in cats, is encoded by the CH1 (chain 1/Fel d 1-A) and CH2 (chain 2/Fel d 1-B) genes. [2] [3] Among cats, Fel d 1 is produced largely in their saliva and by the sebaceous glands located in their skin. It is the primary allergen present on cats and kittens.
The Kazal domain is an evolutionary conserved protein domain usually indicative of serine protease inhibitors.However, kazal-like domains are also seen in the extracellular part of agrins, which are not known to be protease inhibitors.
One of the best post-Christmas sales we look forward to every year is Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale, which typically kicks off the day after Christmas and lasts for a couple of weeks.Ring in the ...
Quarterback Jordan Love was also injured in the Bears game, hurting his elbow in the first half before being replaced by Malik Willis. Love warmed up and threw the ball on the sideline in the ...
The rhodopsin-like GPCRs themselves represent a widespread protein family that includes hormone, neuropeptide, neurotransmitter, and light receptors, all of which transduce extracellular signals through interaction with guanine nucleotide-binding (G) proteins.
